ame across Butter when I was dropping off some marketing materials to the shelter. She had lost 10 pounds in a month at the shelter and was so sick. She had an acute upper respiratory infection that was about to be pneumonia. I took this little bones-on-a-leash home, and for a week, hand-fed her wet food covered in molasses. She wouldn''t even eat that. I later noticed that her teeth had been grinded down to the roots. She has no front teeth (upper or bottom). Butter is as gentle and low-key as any dog could possibly be. Walks beyond 30 minutes are more than enough, and she''s a Level 1 napper! Her favorite activity is sitting on my balcony and watching life happen. She loves my dog but is quite submissive as she doesn''t seem to know quite how to `play.` But she''s playful and loving with Charlie (my dog), and they snuggle often. She''s in the crate for most of the day while I''m at work. I''ve potty trained her, and we haven''t had an accident in months. She can be a bit of a chewer (which is surprising given her dental situation!), so I find it best to crate her when I''m out of the house. She is great at sharing her toys and food. Large groups and loud noises make Butter nervous, she''s happiest relaxing in a calm environment. Nothing makes my heart warmer than to hear her tail thumping when she''s happy, which she almost always is. A quiet home and a place to watch life would be her paradise.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
